According to the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), the air inside a home can be
two to five times more polluted than the air outside a
home. This important fact represents the type of
critical information a new, nationwide partnership of
the American Lung Association and Honeywell will use to
help consumers and homebuilders learn about indoor air
quality and how to create cleaner home air.
Honeywell Home and Environmental Controls Solutions will
partner with the American Lung Association Health House®
program, a 10-year effort that has raised the standard
for cleaner indoor air quality environments through
builder and consumer education.
The partnership combines Health House's public awareness
outreach, including builder education programs and
demonstration homes, with Honeywell's expertise in
whole-house heating, cooling and ventilation controls
and systems that manage indoor air quality.
Certain indoor air elements and conditions can trigger
asthma, a chronic respiratory disease that affects
people of all ages. Nationwide, 31.3 million Americans
have been diagnosed with asthma at some point in their
lives; children lose an estimated 14 million school days
due to the ailment.
"The American Lung Association has been at the forefront
of educating people about the importance of cleaner
indoor air quality for decades," said John Kirkwood,
President & CEO of the American Lung Association.
"Partners like Honeywell help continue this important
education."
Tim Kensok, Director of Honeywell's Indoor Air Quality
Products group said: "Working along side the American
Lung Association is a great opportunity to help
consumers be as informed as possible about the quality
of indoor air and their options for managing and
improving that environment," said "We're proud to be
part of the Health House effort to help consumers and
homebuilders make indoor air cleaner."
